Here are some videos and photos from Memorial Stadium in Lincoln and Saturday's game in Kansas. One video shows Memorial Stadium before the FAU and OU games as well as quite a few close up shots of the team and coaches coming on and off the field. The other one is still pictures set to music.

I think the UNL band's announcer posted these at YouTube.

I think it's cool to see Pelini and the players up close.

Former Kansas State coach Bill Snyder will return to coach the program and will be introduced at a news conference on Monday, ESPN.com's Joe Schad has learned.

A person briefed on the situation said Sunday that Snyder will return to the Wildcats after three years away. Snyder, who is 69 years old, compiled a 136-68-1 record at Kansas State from 1989-2005.

A press conference is scheduled for 10 a.m. CT.

A source indicated to The Wichita (Kan.) Eagle that Snyder would be given a five-year contract worth $1.8 million per season.

He will return to coach in a stadium named for him and his family (Bill Snyder Family Stadium). He replaces Ron Prince, who finished with a 5-7 record this season and 17-20 overall in three seasons at with the Wildcats.

Wow!

Wowy Wow!

Behind the scenes--Husker Band

I'm totally in to the pageantry of college football . . . everything from the cheerleaders to the band to the tailgating. You name it and I dig it. I think we are so lucky in Nebraska to have so much tradition and history and sometimes I think you just take it for granted since we're so used to it.

I saw this video on YouTube showing some of the "behind the scenes" stuff from the Husker band. I still get a bit choked up when they play the national anthem and get pumped when the band plays the fight song.

This dude does a good job and seems pretty calm considering he's talking to 80,000+ people. I know I couldn't do it.

Hope you like it!
